    Anyone wanna guess what those “Consequences” are going to be?

    • A sternly worded written order DEMANDING compliance, with random words in ALL CAPS to show how serious they are this time.
    • A repeat of the orders demanding compliance, but adding the words “OR ELSE” to the end.
    • A $1000 fine for the first dozen or so violations, followed by nothing at all.
    • A contempt of court charge for Trump that actually can’t be enforced because he’s the sitting President.
    • A press release saying that Trump needs to abide by the court’s decisions.
    • Absolutely fucking nothing at all.
